The week of September 29 through October 6, 2007, marks the 26th anniversary of Banned Books Week. Since 1982 Banned Books Week has been observed in the United States as a reminder to Americans not to take the freedom to read for granted. Last year alone, the American Library Association’s Office for Intellectual Freedom received a total of 546 challenges against books.

Celebrate by reading the most challenged books of the 21st Century - the Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling, now available at the Dibner Library.
